Intel is pushing ahead its multi-core strategy and currently is working on at least 21 different processors, TG Daily has learned. Virtually all new Intel chips released between 2006 and 2008 will be based on mobile processor technology and will include the already taped out 65 nm quad-core desktop processor "Kentsfield" and the 45 nm eight-core "Yorkfield" chip. Intel Pentium D 900 (Presler) Double core, dual core og quad core. Research af 32nm teknologi og 21 forskellige processorer inden 2009. Intel har gang i det hele. Hvis man lige skulle remse et par kodenavne op: Yonah1, Yonah2, Presler, Kentsfield, Yorkfield, Merom, Conroe.. Listen fortsætter.
En lille smagsprøve:
Yorkfield = 8 cores + 12mb cache - 2008
Penryn = 2 x dualcore + 3-6mb cache - 2007
